If there are multiple connections, as Pat said, you can include all of them in the report by using the option to print all relationships but each will be a separate chart showing the path between the people for that specific connection. Brian Customer Support Millennia Corporation

Genealogists love manuscript sources because they are often primary sources. Because of this interest many genealogical, historical, patriotic, and lineage societies seek out and publish manuscript sources. Typically, these sources are also found in archives, libraries, and private collections.
